Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Umarex Browning Buck Mark URX is not too bad but I feel it is a bit heavier than the claimed 5.75 pounds. In comparison to my real steel 22LR Buck Mark, the trigger is much heavier but then again my 22LR trigger is what I would consider to be near perfection. I was able to work with the trigger as is but found I was expecting the trigger to release earlier than it actually did and I needed to apply just a bit more force than I would have liked to. Even so, with a bit of practice I was able to nail my shots. 

Accuracy: Wow is all I can say, you will need to work with the Umarex Browning Buck Mark URX a bit to get used to where the trigger breaks but once you dial it in this airgun is a tac driver. I decided to go with a non-magnified NcSTAR Ultra Compact 1x25 Red/Green Dot Sight and found it worked well with this Buck Mark pellet shooter. From 30 feet out I was able to land 4 shots pretty much right on top of each other and ended up with an under 1 inch 5 shot group, and keep in mind that I was only using a standing but rested stance (non-braced).

Build Quality: Considering the very low price tag for this pellet shooting Buck Mark Replica, I was not expecting it to be as well constructed as it was, there is a decent amount of metal in the URX giving it a nice 1.5 pound heftiness to it and the rubberized grips make this air pistol feel much more expensive than it is. My only concern is the hinge area in the break barrel portion of the gun, once cocked there seems to be some play that could affect accuracy down the road when wear appears. Once locked back into the closed position the play is all but eliminated.

Realism: The Umarex Browning Buck Mark URX is a licensed replica of the actual Browning Buck Mark 22LR semi auto pistol. Umarex did a great job making this break barrel pistol look very close in most ways to the actual Browning Buck Mark URX with the exception of the lever required to cock the spring that is located just under the back of the barrel. The barrel itself is also a tad bit long but I am sure this helps when cocking to get a bit more leverage. When you consider this is a single shot break barrel pellet shooting version, it looks pretty authentic and most importantly it feels very similar to the real 22LR version which makes it a great off range alternative for 22LR Buck Mark owners.

Pros:

  • Very decent Browning Buck Mark Replica!
  • Feels very well built overall for a low cost airgun.
  • Excellent accuracy once you spend a bit of time with it.
  • Got much better than claimed fps.
  • Has a built in rail for an added sight system.
  • Awesome rubberized grip texture.
  • Ergonomics are much like the real Buck Mark making this a great off the range substitution for the real 22LR pistol.
  • Very low price tag.

Cons:

  • Not sure if the barrel hingessystem will hold up over time?
  • Would have liked a metal trigger with a slightly lighter trigger pull to match the real Buck Mark.
  • Metal barrel wrap would have added the right amount of weight to the front for balance.

Comments: I enjoyed this pistol review very much, this is the type of airgun you find hard to put down because it just performs so well and costs very little to shoot. Being a 22LR Buck Mark owner it was wonderful to see that Umarex made this gun very true to form, at least as much as they could considering the pellet shooting Browning Buck Mark URX is mechanically completely different to the 22LR version. The light cocking effort makes it great for just about anyone and the low recoil helps to keep your shots on target. I would recommend this break barrel pellet shooting Buck Mark replica to everyone. I seriously ca not think of any person that would not enjoy it ;)

Excellent for the money

Very accurate, feels like the real Browning Buckmark .22lr pistol(which is why I got it, I like the real deal Browning Buckmark). Barrel locks up tight. Sights are decent, though I will be using high vis. paint on them. Slight downfall is how heavy the trigger pull is. Only complaint with my gun in particular is that sometimes the safety feels like it's stuck, and takes some major force to take the safety off. First time that happened, I thought I was going to break the safety, but finally just forced it, yet nothing broke. It happens every 5 or so shots I think. I've gotten used to it. I have put about 500 pellets through it already and still works great. For the price you pay, I'm super happy with it though.

Well made. Light, easy to hold. Fits in hand very well. The trigger is a little stiff which causes shake at the critical moment. A big plus is not having to buy CO2 cylinders.

Quick delivery time

Just needed to dial in the sites to bring it up to snuff. The trigger is a little heavy but that was easy to get used to.

Browning Buck Mark URX

Very well made pistol. Comes to hand nicely, is very accurate and well balanced. I enjoy using it and it is ideal for backyard plinking. Umerex did an excellent job in copying this pistol right down to the adjustable rear sights. Excellent for winter shooting since the spring is not affected by cold and firing is consistant unlike the way CO2 pistols lose power. If you don't mind single shot reloading, which is quite smooth with this pistol, this is the one for you. You will not be disappointed.

Browning Buck Mark URX complete test

Great! Accurate but requires a little practice. The power could be better but it's pretty good because the barrel is 5 inches so more power would certainly make it less accurate. I still got an average of between 300 and 320 fps on my chronograph with 7.2 and 7.5 gr pellets so about 2 to 2.5j of power which is pretty good for this kind of weapon. I recommend it.

great value air pistol!

I've had my browning buck mark URX for over a year, and have become a crack shot with it.It looks great and is perfect for plinking all day...because of the funnel breach, gamo lead round balls seat nicely and don't roll down the barrel towards the muzzle.I would have preferred velocities above 400 fps.
